Style Tips

"How to Wear a Headband"

There are so many girls out there wearing adorable bold headband, and some of us just don't think we can pull it off. Luckily I am here to tell you YOU CAN! Just follow a few of these guidelines and you'll be able to wear them like a star.

1 - Pair the headbands with a plain and simple outfit - this doesn't mean no color, use color! You want the headband to stand out and make a statement. While planning your outfit, take the "less is more" approach.

2 - Wear a smaller earring, you don't want to overpower the headband and your face with crazy bold and large earrings. Remember we want to focus to be on your pretty face and headband.

3 - Volume, volume, volume, in your hair that is. When you are blowing out your hair use a round brush and take extra time to add volume to the crown of your head. Do this especially when wearing a larger headband. It will make the headband blend a little more and look a lot better.

4 - Neutral colors are key to feeling comfortable in the headband. You want it to be a different color than your hair for a nice contrast.


Now that you know how to wear a headband and feel fabulous doing it, come into the store and pick one out!

"I like how 'bling' is a popular style, but how much is too much for my age?"

It really just depends on what you're comfortable in, but a great starting point is a fun pair of rhinestone-studded jeans, partnered with your favorite shirt and some great chunky jewelry!

Our new LA Idol rhinestone capris are just what you need, and at only $44.50, you can't go wrong with them!
Also, jewelry with big pearls or bold colors are a great match for rhinestone denim.


Wear a shirt that you love- don't be afraid to get dressy with it, but a fun burnout tee can also do the job fine. Just remember: stick with what you feel comfortable in. You'll look great!

    This blogger has a fantastic sense of style. She is very innovative and creative when it comes to layering. The above post about layering is very bland and Jr. High. Simplicity is definitely a plus....but a twist on sophistication is what's missing.

    I do appreciate a lot of the pieces that can be found in your store, but I feel that the target demographic has blinded your buyer to true fashion. It seems that your store might be gearing the inventory towards 40+ women who have an Ed Hardy fascination. The "blinged-out" trend is actually quite tacky. If you were to survey the general public, the percentage of those who actually wear that "style" equates to 40+ women who are trying to look "hip" and "young."

    It's really disheartening that you're basing your fashion sense purely on the close-minded lack of fashion in the South Jordan area. It might do your store good to attend NY fashion shows or even read/review them online. There is a WEALTH of fashion information online. Tap into the fashion community & it could really improve your inventory! It's actually incredible what's out there. The Chloe Conspiracy is only ONE of many. You should *forecast* the trends & find wearable pieces to sell in your stores.

    Please don't take this comment in a negative light, because it is in NO way intended to be such. I AM a fan of your store & a lot of the fun, whimsical pieces I can find there. I just find the "blingy" crap & display pairings a little frustrating. SO much could be done with your pieces to better reflect your true fashion sense. There is SO much potential, that I feel is being blinded by some of the tacky trends. I'm sure the "bling items" bring in great revenue for the store, because of the lack of fashion culture in our city...not necessarily your fault...but hopefully, that's not the only thing driving your purchases for the store.

    I feel that if a different perspective was taken by your buyers, you could inspire a different perspective for your customers.

    Thank you for reading.
